Distribution and Sales

Printed Book Distribution

Online Distribution

Authors who opt for online distribution can have their books listed on our online book store, www.thedogearsbookshop.com and on our channel partners within India, and internationally.

In India, the books are sold on The Dogears Bookshop, and other select websites. The Dogears Bookshop also ships books globally. Internationally, the book is sold on various platforms (see the full list below this paragraph). In both cases, online distribution is carried out only on POD basis i.e. your book will be printed and shipped on order.

Offline (Physical) Distribution

We also offer the option of having your books distributed to a select few book stores around the country. To avail of this option, you must provide us with up to 4 review copies. After reviewing, the retailer will request a certain number of copies, the cost of printing of which will be borne by you. You must also pay for the shipping of these books to bookshop. These retailers demand a commission of up to 40% off the MRP for their service, and the books have to be shipped to them at your cost. At 12-month intervals, you may ask for an account of sales. At these intervals, you can also request that your books be withdrawn from these retail channels, if so desired.

It might happen that none of the retailers choose to sell your book, for whatever reason. For example, your kind of book might not fit into their general stocking plans.
